What was The Reign of Terror?

The Reign of Terror was a very harsh time period. It involved chopping peoples heads off and burning people alive. It was a very big thing for people who were poor because they were fighting for food. It wasn't that big of a deal for the kings and nobles because they were fighting for freedom. This was very unfair to a lot of people. Although it didn't really have a huge affect on the clergy. It was a very unjust war.

Is the Regin of Terror unjust or just?

It is unjust!

The Reign of Terror was a very unjust time in history. It was unfair to people that did absolutely nothing.

This war was started by Robespierre to purge the France enemies of the Revolution and protect the country. It was a time of violence and it killed tens of thousands of people.
